Absolutely gorgeous work by Allison Polgar @allisonpolgar at Bay Arts in Cleveland. I’ve never loved traffic cones so much as I do now that I’ve seen how she paints and captures them in her work! Great work to see in person! #clevelandart #artopening #allisonpolgar #painting #cleveland #bayarts #cle
Trying something different for documenting this new work. A huge thanks to Jen Ramirez for the photography. It was especially fun to photograph the work in her yard, where I constantly am getting new flower inspiration! #sculpturetowear #metalsmith #wildflowers #snagmember #aluminum #waterjetcutting #plastidip #newwork
New job, and a peek at new work! I am so excited to have started a new position as the studio lab tech for Oberlin College’s Art Department. I am running the fabrication lab which consists of a clean side (laser cutter, 3d printer) and dirty side (woodshop, CNC, handtools). Tuesday the students arrived, and I took this “first day of school” photo. Missing Kent State School of Art and Canton Museum of Art, but thrilled to have this new opportunity!
Progress! Was not expecting my knapweed piece which was created from a vector drawing consisting of lines (no arcs) to end up so curvilinear in its final wearable form- Totally different from my plan! Still a ways to go before color can be added. #wip #aluminum #waterjetcut #sculpturetowear #snagmember #artjewelry
Meet Iris! Iris is a little 4H piggy who we fell in love with at the county fair this week. She just had a good check up and we will introduce her to Sunny Bean and Evil Frankie next week! Welcome to the family little buddy! 💕🐹💕 #gpig #guineapig #cavvies #cavviesofinstagram #iris
Also on the bench: milkweed bow ties! 🎀🌸 #wip #milkweed #wildflower #sculpturetowear #vectordrawing #rhino #aluminum #handsawing #onthebench #snagmember #newwork
Spent a day last week with @slhmouse scanning plants from her beautiful garden. Wind, sun, and shadows all work abstracting portions and revealing others in each sample. Excited to see where these lead now that they are 3d printed in clear resin! #wip #3dprinting #flora #inthegarden #metalsmith #jewelrydesign #sculpturetowear #snagmember #onthebench #newwork #3dscan #3dprint #resin #formlabs
Related works in progress! Pausing to let these simmer a bit before I decide on final forming and connecting methods. So many possibilities! And then, color! 🌸😁⚒ #wip #newwork #waterjetcut #handcut #sawingandpiercing #vectordrawing #rhino #sculpturetowear #aluminum #snagmember #metalsmith #wildflowers #knapweed
🌼🌼🌼These might be my favorite earrings made for @ombregallery #inthegarden 🌼🌼🌼 Evening primroses in bud form, full bloom, and day after wilting. Took some liberties with the color, though! The buds opening and blooming before my eyes served as great entertainment growing up. #sculpturetowear #wearart #wildflowers #powdercoat #metasmith #snagmember #ajf #artjewelry
